Android - Compile, Install, Run and Debug

README.md

Will require tweaking for your environment as I've hardcoded some binary paths.

Requires all the usual gubbins to compile android:

• Apache ANT
• Android
• Android ADB
• Android Monitor

If you want to use this with sublime-text, then you'll need a simple build script:

{
    "working_dir": "$project_path",
    "shell_cmd": "/path/to/android.compile.sh"
}

android.compiler.sh

#!/bin/bash

#
# BE PRETTY

#
# BUILD AND RUN
#
    # Must run in the correct context
    cd /home/david/Documents/5-2

    # Build the apk
    ant debug

    # Make sure it installs OK - http://stackoverflow.com/a/12359795
    /home/david/Development/android-sdk-linux/platform-tools/adb -d uninstall $PACKAGE

    # Install on the device
    /home/david/Development/android-sdk-linux/platform-tools/adb -d install -r ./bin/$PROJECT-debug.apk

    # Run the apk on the device
    /home/david/Development/android-sdk-linux/platform-tools/adb shell am start -n $PACKAGE/$ACTIVITY

#
# DEBUGGING
#
    # Open Debugger if not already open
